    Default are tyres made in 2010 to old?

    looking at tyres that were made in 2010...are they going to be just as good as ones made in 2011 ..like noise and durability wise etc?

    Thanks

    They will be fine. Nothing wrong with them.

    What if you bought a car that was a 2008 model & it still had the original tyres.........imagine that

    General life expectancy of tyres are 5-6 years, after that they deteriorate and become brittle, and very slippery! You should buy tyres max 3 years after manufacture date (stamped on sidewall), then you have 2-3 years of usable life still in them.
